Zhang Ailing said in "Love in the Fallen City": "It is a difficult and painful thing to grasp a man for a long time without the guarantee of marriage, and it is almost impossible. ”
Although marriage is a guarantee of one's own love, a marriage without love will not last long and will be unhappy after all.

Knowledgeable and ritualistic, fertile and blue-hearted
During the Republic of China period, an ordinary family in Lu County, Sichuan Province, had an extremely outstanding daughter, and she was Cai Wenna.
Because Cai Wenna's parents were intellectuals who were full of poetry, they were also very disgusted with the habit of "women without talent is morality" that was handed down from feudal society at that time.
When Cai Wenna reached the age of school, she sent her to school, and they hoped that their daughter would become a talented woman who was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, rather than a "feudal talented woman" who could not read big characters.
When Cai Wenna was in middle school, she showed her talent, she not only studied well, but also looked very beautiful, and people at the school at that time called her a school flower.
In this way, she became a talented girl pursued by boys, envied by girls, knowledgeable and gifted, and Hui Zhilanxin, and when she saw such an excellent daughter, Cai Father cai mother was very pleased, they often looked at their daughters, and the corners of their mouths gradually appeared smiling.
I thought that my daughter could be so good and find a man who was the right person to marry, but with the arrival of a person, all the fantasies of Cai Father and Cai Mother were in vain, and this person was Yang Sen.
He was a famous warlord in Sichuan at that time, with outstanding merits, and could be said to be the leading figure of the Sichuan warlords.
What Yang Sen has received now can be described as hard-won, his family has been very poor since he was a child, his father is a small official in prison, and kung fu is quite OK, which makes Yang Sen particularly interested in xi wu since he was a child.
At the age of 24, Yang Sen became a member of the Sichuan Army Ben team, and because of his excellent performance in all aspects of the army, he was highly recognized by the leaders of the army, and sent him to the army crash school hoping that he could become a professional soldier.
Here Yang Sen met Liu Xiang, and what Yang Sen did not expect was that the Liu Xiang in front of him would become the core figure of the Sichuan warlords in the future.
Yang Sen is not to be outdone, and eventually became a leader-like figure in the Sichuan warlords, in addition to his outstanding achievements, his private life is also very chaotic, there are 12 public wives and concubines alone, which can be described as "three thousand harem beauties", and there are nearly 43 children.
Cai Wenna because of her outstanding appearance and outstanding talent, her fame soon spread throughout Lu County, and this was the beginning of her tragic fate.
Because Yang Sen's previous wives and concubines were all vases with no superficial appearance, they did not learn much, which made the already vulgar Yang Sen not stay in them for a long time.
When Yang Sen learned that there was such an outstanding girl in Luxian County, he came to Luxian Middle School, which is the school where Cai Wenna attended.
After meeting Cai Wenna, Janssen can be said to be completely attracted to her beauty, not only that, after hearing the content of her conversation with others, he thinks that this is the woman he wants to pursue.
If you can marry Cai Wenna back home, it can also be regarded as the realization of his dream for many years, he did not say a word to bring a rich bride price to the Cai family to propose to relatives, Guang Yangsen brought these things, are enough for an ordinary family to live for ten years.
Cai's father and mother, who see these things, although they hope that their daughters can have a good home, although Yang Sen's great Cai Wenna is 30 years old, but People with such a big family as Yang Sen can't give their daughters such a rich life, which is not a good home.
Therefore, Cai Father and Cai Mother married their daughters to Yang Sen, and they naturally lived a rich life.
Became the ninth aunt and died at gunpoint
In this way, Yang Sen, who is in his 40s, married the 14-year-old Cai Wenna home and became the ninth aunt of Yang Sen, and the 14-year-old Cai Wenna was not as old as some of Yang Sen's children, but the children did not dare to say anything.
Although it is a love that spans 30 years old, the love between Yang Sen and Cai Wenna, an old husband and young wife, was once envious of others.
After marriage, he was very fond of Cai Wenna, and stayed with Cai Wenna every day, and to outsiders, this 14-year-old girl seemed to be his legitimate wife.
In this marriage of first marriage and then love, Cai Wenna did not get good results.
After two years of marriage, Yang Sen knew that Cai Wenna's English was not good, and occasionally accompanied himself out to deal with foreigners, somewhat inferior, so he hired an English teacher for Cai Wenna to tutor Cai Wenna's English.
That English teacher was only a few years older than Cai Wenna, which was similar to Cai Wenna's age.
Marrying without experiencing love, and marrying someone about the same age as her father, Cai Wenna initially thought it was love, and when she met the English teacher, her previous ideas were completely overturned.
After a long period of solitude, coupled with the fact that both sides are handsome men and women with full talent, they soon have a love affair between them, and they begin to "fall in love" in the name of tutoring English.
Janssen, seeing that they had more feelings between them than between teachers and students, sent someone to teach the English teacher a lesson and kicked him out of the house.
Yang Sen, who was extremely possessive, was very angry at Cai Wenna's behavior, and in order to make Cai Wenna and his other aunts loyal to him, he gathered all his wives and concubines together, and under the gaze of everyone, he whipped Cai Wenna, who was kneeling in the middle, with a long whip.
This made the aunts and wives on the side look frightened and very scared, looking at this age like their sister or daughter's aunts and wives, they really couldn't bear it, and they all pleaded with Yang Sen to let him let Cai Wenna go.
And Yang Sen seemed to be waiting for them to intercede, so he put down the whip in his hand and asked the servant to send Cai Wenna back to the room for treatment.
Yang Sen, who came out of this betrayal, once again entered Cai Wenna's room, still very fond of her as before, and did not feel sorry for Cai Wenna because of the last teacher-student love.
When Cai Wenna told him that he wanted to study at West China University in Chengdu, he sent her over without much thought.
Entering the university, Cai Wenna came into contact with many excellent boys of the same age as herself, and she completely forgot about the last whipping.
She came together with a boy named Lü Xing, a classmate of the same class, and Lü Xing's family naturally could not be compared with Yang Sen, but he was younger than Yang Sen, which was an absolute advantage in Cai Wenna's heart.
The two have been together for a long time, so that their feelings for each other are deeper, and at this moment, Lu Xing has begun to plan for the two to elope.
Cai Wenna knew that Yang Sen's means were clever and could not escape, plus Yang Sen was very good to herself and her parents, and she could not bear it, so she did not agree to Lü Xing's elopement plan.
Cai Wenna liked Lü Xing to the extreme, and she explained her relationship with Lü Xing to Yang Sen and filed for divorce with Yang Sen.
Yang Sen, who had paid a lot for Cai Wenna, was naturally unwilling, so he let Cai Wenna accompany him for the last night, but the next morning, he sent someone to shoot Cai Wenna.
Cai Wenna was once Yang Sen's favorite wife, and also the wife who Gave Yang Sen the most efforts, and she was also the wife who could let Yang Sen repeatedly lower his bottom line, but she ended up being the most tragic among Yang Sen's many aunts.
Marriage without love is like a ship without a rudder, although it can sail, it will eventually stop and capsize.
